Shakhram Giyasov starts final preparation for Rey Perez

Shakhram Giyasov gets back to work on August 15 when he makes his first start in close to a year against Francisco Hernandez Rojo in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In reality, the junior welterweight contender never stopped working after arriving in Indio, California six months ago to prepare for a fight on the April 17 card headlined by the Regis Prograis-Maurice Hooker bout.
